The reinforcement of wolves is a bilateral Swedish/Norwegian agreement. The the protected areas are on both sides of the border and the areas are the natural habitat of the wolves. Even so, stray wolves are occationally observed way off the protected area. One or two have been shot, others are killed by train or by cars. ( Even not far from my property stray wolves occationally passes by more than once a year,)

Inside or close to the area are several local comunities and widespread farms. The areas are remote, the kids are bussed to school and have to wait for transportation along the side of the roads- sometimes in temperatures below 20 centigrades and large amount of snow.

(The rest have to wait for tomorrow )
